Harry Kane close to another new Tottenham Hotspur contract?

Harry Kane is believed to be on the verge of signing a second new contract with Tottenham Hotspur in the space of six months.

The England Under-21 only penned a five-year deal at Spurs in August, but the club reportedly want to extend his stay until 2020 and reward his outstanding form this season with a bumper wage packet.

The Telegraph claims that Kane, who has usurped Emmanuel Adebayor and Roberto Soldado as Mauricio Pochettino's first-choice striker, will nearly double his salary to £35,000 per week.

Having previously failed to pull up trees during loan spells at Leyton Orient, Millwall, Leicester City and Norwich City, Kane has become a White Hart Lane favourite by scoring 18 goals in all competitions this campaign.

England manager Roy Hodgson has admitted that he is considering handing the 21-year-old Spurs academy graduate a first senior international call up in March, for the Euro 2016 qualifier against Lithuania.
